I'll finish watching your video, but- and I've been SEARCHING self-maintanance videos for *years* and never saw anything that actually helped! Your hand-rolling technique right around the 6min mark literally just took everything I'd just spent the last 15min trying to crochet, and LEGIT took care of it in 3 seconds!!! I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH Btw I just realized my 9yo daughter changed my profile pic lol

    Hello lovely lady. I got a full head of dreads a week ago. I didn't do research before committing, not the first one. Watching your videos on crocheting and dread maintenance has put my mind at ease. Feeling more comfortable and confident from your shared dread knowledge. I will be getting urgent maintenance tomorrow. From then on I will be using the oils you prescribed in this video (Not coconut oil, as I found out the hard way haha). Using your palm rolling technique and frequent crochet practise. Should be a pro in no time. Love your videos, you are super bubbly and charismatic. Charming personality. I will stay tuned. I sincerely thank you for your time.

    I use oils anyway for other things but never thought to use them on my 6 month old dreads. GREAT IDEA. I have fractionated coconut oil because it is so not greasy . That would be great for the scalp...but how many drops in total do you use in what quantity_ Your video is great...first time I thought to check on KZread too...need to tidy them up and your explanation and really fun attitude was just the perfect way to sit watch, tidy and drink coffee in the morning. Thanks! I{m in Baja California Sur, Mexico, but will head up to San Diego and then LA in January....where would you be traveling from if I wanted dread help_

I double or triple the recipe so it lasts longer.

    i have dyed hair that’s green currently and i’m also starting my dread journey for my second time! my first time was just started naturally because i have curly hair and i never (oops) brush my hair and i didn’t use conditioner at the time (double oops). now that i have longer and healthier hair i’m starting out with scattered dreads and having my naturally curly hair down as well (if that makes sense). I’m so lucky to have found these videos this time and to be able to know exactly what i need and how to take care of them! i currently have one little dread and his name is Philip, i named him because i felt bad that he was all alone 😅. anyway, thank you for the amazing content and being well educated on what you’re discussing!

    I use Dr Bronners DILUTED with water (about 1 part Dr B to 10 parts water - super watery) and I use a squeeze ketchup bottle to get it on the scalp for a regular washing. For a deep cleanse, I like to make an ACV, lemon juice and baking soda mixture with water in a bowl and soak for a while then rinse. It’s magical! (The proof will be in the bowl - pretty gnarly). Happy Dread journey indeed. (I’m on my 3rd set and have learned a lot about having thin, straight, white girl dreads).

    So pretty 😊 How do they feel at touch?, they look so light, airy an soft where as other's look like hard rods. The colours go perfectly with you!!

    Rough transcript / my notes: On the daily: FIRST: Shower in a bottle: distilled water (keep from mildew), essential oils - lavender (moisturizing), rosemary, tea tree (antifungal, helps with itchy scalp), eucalyptus, lime (revitalizing), peppermint SECOND: Oil - same mixture, except, instead of distilled water, it’s apricot / almond / vit E / olive / avocado oil (whichever is best)  DON’T use sesame or coconut oil. Can moisturize dreads but also use on scalo specifically, esp when dreads are new or freshly tightened. Helps with dandruff and itchiness. Occasionally: If have bad dandruff itch problem, use head and shoulders with tea tree added will help, soaked on scalp for a bit and rinsed - but not on dreadlocks themselves cuz of residue. Do not use wax ever. Palm rolling - can help with frizzies. Washing dreads, once every couple weeks. More you wash, looser they get. But when you dry after washing, they tighten up. Try not to wash when you are able not to. Uses dr bronners with lavender when washes hair but she’s looking for conditioning shampoo. Lush? Daddio is purple. Don’t let dreads stay wet. Thicker = longer time to dry. Can get mildew. No bun or braid while wet. Deep cleansing wash if you did get skunk sprayed or something. Use soak of raw apple cider vinegar (ew stinky) but feel soft afterward. No conditioner. Maintenance: Month after get dreads, 6 months after that, once a year after that. Turn roots into dreadlocks via backcombing loose hair and using crochet hook. Trial and error to make the roots dreads the same diameter as rest of dreads. After maintenance will be achy and tender or itchy for a couple days.

    You are my go to girl for all things dread! Will the oil be advisable for me since I have semi greasy hair naturally? Thanks for all the great videos!

    Love this! Did you ever mention how much oil-to-water ratio in that spray? Or did I miss it??

    You are my favorite dread lady on the tube! Last week I followed through with your twist and tear method mixed with some back combing, and I am really trying to get the crocheting down but am having troubleI also used bee's wax...did I already fuck them up? Should I try to wash them to get the wax out or just keep going and not add anymore??? Or do something else? I hope you get this... thank you for your videos

    Oh I am so happy that I have come across your videos, am about to follow on instagram and will soon be ordering you dread kit... I have been wanting dreads for ages, but it's officially time to start them, as I have begun my travels, I wanted to ask, you mentioned that you can infact dread extensions into the dread? my hair is super short, and I would really like to possibly start them off a little longer, do you have a video showing how to put extensions into dreads?... I'm stoked to finally be able to start this journey! and I feel like I have found my no1 go to for all my dread related queries! Love love love this!👌✌
